Blues and gospel music performed on a suburban station in Manchester. With Sister Rosetta Tharpe, Muddy Waters, Sonny Terry and Brownie McGhee, The performances takes place on Chorltonville railway station, Manchester: the performers on one platform and the audience on the other, with the track in between.

Tharpe was a self-taught guitarist, and she strutted around a stage strumming windmills decades before Chuck Berry or Pete Townsend. Her 1945 crossover hit "Strange Things Happening Everyday" was later covered by Jerry Lee Lewis, and admired by Elvis Presley, Little Richard and Bob Dylan.
